Embedded Search Developer Documentation

[Former Member]

Hi Folks!

In this thread http://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1724651 Embeddes Search vs. SES is discussed.

But as far as I know for Embedded Search there is no developer documentation / how-to guide available.

My problem still is:

How can I define my own business objects for Embedded Search. With SES it was made by simply creating a Business Object via SES_ADMIN and then creating and implementing an Index Class with certain methods.

How is this done with Embedded Search. Ist there any documentation/How-To-Guide for customer-own objects with Embedded Search.

And last but not least: Can I rescue some investments already done in implementing own objects with SES (especially the Index Class to fill the Index) or do I have to start from scratch again?

Thanx very much for any information!!!

Regards,

volker

hello Colleague,

you could the details in the SAP WIKI Link for Enterprise Search.i'm not sure about where all the documentation is available, there is no SAP Press book published for the same.

if you have the indexing class of the SES it would be of great help. you should all know where the change pointers are written and the same have to be written for Embedded Search.

One needs to know about the Entity relationship diagram about the object which makes it easier to model the same object in Embedded Search. Modeller could be launched via the transaction ESH_MODELER.

you could use the above transaction and get to know how the modelleing is done for Material belonging to SAP_APPL software component.

the extraction logic is written in the BADI BADI_ESH_IF_OBJECT_DATA. GET_DATA and NEXT method are used for Full and Delta indexing.

you could do the same for a small scenario(indexing data of only the root node- main DB table)

if you have any more queries you could address it.

Best regards,

Om
